When it's 20 below they pile up the snow, in my driveway 10 feet high. But why should I sit in my soft arm chair and curse the snowplow man? Let me swallow my wrath and shovel a path for him to fill up again. Stress and Northern Living It wasn't that many years ago that the con- cept of stress was a for- eign one. Only in re- cent years has it be- come credible to attri- bute an illness like the common cold to a per- son's stress level. And now that stress is an acknowledged force af- fecting our psychologi- cal and physical well- being, most people yearn to know. more about what 'exactly stress is, and more im- portant, how to keep stress under control. While there is no shortage of material on the subject (i.e. dia- grams that chart the chemical changes which occur in our body have been done), getting to know the nature of the beast is not necessarily accomplished strictly by reading. That is be- cause so many environ- mental and personal factors 'affect the na- ture of the stress that affects us. Here in Northwest- ern Ontario we have a major environmental factor to contend with - the cold. Our préoccu- pation with adequate shelter and clothing, re- liable transportation, the cost of heating our homes, mortgaging the house for a vacation far south, increases our stress level consider- ably. One would think that there would be compen- sations for coping with a hostile climate. But price at the pumps, the supermarket and cloth- ing stores, etc., do little to support this assump- tion. Then there is the chal- lenge of understanding our personal stress lev- el. The old analogy of the race horse and the turtle applies well to the human condition. What is a _ stressful situa- tion for some, may not be for others, depend- and for sure, ing on whether you are a racehorse or a turtle. Finally there are the special interest groups. In spite of their improv- ing status, women con- tinue to be viewed as being subject to exces- sive stress whether married or single, in the labour market, or as a homemaker. The inor- dinate amount of stress has been attributed to causes ranging from loneliness and isolation to total conflict when working and raising a family. The Women's Health Education Project is of- fering a workshop en- titled "Women and Stress: Coping with Northern Living' in 14 communities in North- western Ontario. De- signed to explore the unique stressors in the environment in relation to personal circum- stances, the workshop attempts to do more than the breathing tech- nique and organization- al manuals. do. Getting beyond the surface, the participants are en- couraged to get at the sources with a focus on formulating solutions. Participation from the group, as opposed to the lecture format will be emphasized. It seems clear that with stress, as with other problems solutions come from within, not from with- out. In Terrace Bay the workshop will take place on Tuesday, January 24th at 7:30 p.m. and will be held at Birch- wood Terrace. There is no cost to take part in this workshop and the duration is estimated to be approximately two hours. For more inform- ation on this topic. you are urged to contact Donna Mikluk at 824- 2745.
